Hepburn in a hammock

Maria Nieves Zedeño sent in this photo of her mom Maria "Meni" Mercedes Tibau in 1973 in Salinas, Ecuador

Maria writes: "This was her second honeymoon. My mother was a poet. Writing defined her and that she did everyday, even thoughher main job was at home with us. "Meni" was an insightful and encouraging mother and wife. A bohemian to boot, she also adored everything Hollywood, specially Marilyn Monroe, Elizabeth Taylor, and Audrey Hepburn. In this photo, she is channeling Hepburn in the French Riviera: Navy buttondown, stripped reggata pants, a headband, and gold sandals. Simple, summery, and totally chic."

Ӏ'm impressed, I have to admit. Rarely do I come across a blog that'ѕ equally educative anԁ amusіng, and ωithout a ԁoubt, yοu've hit the nail on the head. The issue is an issue that not enough people are speaking intelligently about. I am very happy that I stumbled across this in my search for something regarding this.
